GDT: Carolina @ Los Angeles: Whoever wins, we hurt our draft position edition

[WhiteTrashAmerican]

We're going to look back at Jordan in three years the same way we look at Bowman now. "How the hell did that guy play normal minutes for an NHL team"

 

[Joe McGrath]

There's a rumor that a couple of our d-men are dinged up a little and that Jordan is one. He's mostly just struggling playing his off side. Still, I would expect Pesce to see some ice time before he returns to Charlotte.

I sure hope for Jordan's sake that he is dinged up because he looks horrible.

I think plenty of us were thinking this when he signed the 1way deal. The bigger one though may be top pair Ron Hainsey.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Certainly not a masterpiece defensively, but they've created more offensively so far than the entire Avalanche game.

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Best shift of the year.

 

[Ole Gil]

Canes looking sharp. Generating high quality chances.

 

[Unsustainable]

Last couple of mins was good hockey.

Just switched to the baseball game and it's a rain delay. Pete Rose is on their 5 man panel and he is just completely baffled that anyone does anything other than sit on their ass during a rain delay. A-Rod is talking about Pilates, Frank Thomas says he'd watch film on potential relievers and Pete just basically says who cares. I miss sports being a simpler time.

I guess he can't talk about drinking beer and calling his bookies on TV.

I think he said he'd drink coffee, which I assume had whiskey in it. Or uppers.

 

[Wolfpuck]

Nesty hurt blocking a shot

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Another shot from the point with traffic in front. Malone and McClemment look like a decent 4th line this year.

They did last year too.

 

[A Star is Burns]

They really need to work on defensive communication. Too many controller disconnected plays where they seem to think someone else is going to get the puck.

 

[Wolfpuck]

We're outplaying them, but we all know that means nothing

 

[Joe McGrath]

Uh, that's not much of a penalty

 

[cptjeff]

Yeah, pretty weak call there.

 

[Joe McGrath]

The Kings ride absolute waves of possesion. It's a good thing too because they are sloppy as hell in their own end.

 

[Ole Gil]

Its the same 5 guys getting penned in over and over. Skins, Versteeg, Murphy, hanifin, their center.

 

[WhiteTrashAmerican]

If this team gets shut out again consider me triggered

 

[Joe McGrath]

If this team gets shut out again consider me triggered

They've been shut out zero times this season so in not sure what you mean by again

 

[Wolfpuck]

If this team gets shut out again consider me triggered

Again?

 

[WhiteTrashAmerican]

Forgot the garbage goal in the nashville game. Regardless another game of inept production. This team is so far beyond moral victories

 

[Wolfpuck]

McBain delay of game

Don't worry Jamie, we won't score

I'd argue that they have no delusions of being a playoff team so they are all about moral victories.
